Webfleet bolsters CO₂ reporting

Amsterdam, Netherlands: Webfleet, Bridgestone’s management system, has boosted its CO₂ reporting tool for fleets. Webfleet’s CO₂ reporting tool now enables fleets to report on direct emissions (Scope 1) and indirect emissions (Scope 2) for vehicles using distance- and fuel-based calculation methods.

This means that Webfleet customers can now use the Webfleet CO₂ report as a consistent method to track emissions regardless of the vehicle type.

“With the addition of Scope 2 and the distance-based measurement, the Webfleet CO₂ reporting tool is leading the way in the European market in calculating and analysing Scope 1 and 2 emissions, with two separate certified calculation methods, marking a key milestone in the journey toward sustainable mobility.” Webfleets says.

“The Webfleet CO₂ Report provides real-time and historical data on trips, as well as monthly and annual insights, helping fleets comply with the EU’s new Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive.”

The reporting tool separates Scope 1, the direct emission from internal combustion vehicles, and Scope 2, the indirect emissions from purchased electricity from the grid consumed by electric vehicles, providing fleets with a clear and simplified overview of their CO₂ footprint.

It automatically calculates carbon dioxide equivalents (CO₂-eq) by accounting for emissions from carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N₂O), ensuring alignment with established GHG protocol guidelines, which are the standard requirement for CSRD reporting.

“As sustainability continues to transform mobility, access and transparency of key metrics become paramount for fleets of all sizes,” said Jan-Maarten de Vries, president fleet management solutions at Bridgestone Mobility Solutions.

“We understand the complexities of sustainability reporting and that it can be challenging for fleets to manage this new data. By adding the capability to accurately track Scope 2 emissions with certified calculation methods to our proven CO₂ reporting tool, we provide customers with a better understanding of their overall environmental impact.

“These new additions offer a more holistic view of sustainability reporting for our customers, while simplifying valuable insights for informed decision-making that drive sustainability, efficiency and long-term value.”
